 Angel Fuente v Ray Leonard-This fight went from a great match up to a possible walk through with turmoil in the Fuente camp. Fuente is currently without a manager, and facing one of the top managers in the game. By the time Fuente clear waivers, his new management team will have a short period of time to prepare for the fight. Leonard on the other hand has been training like a mad man. He vows to make Angel’s situation even worse with a KO. Leonard has his eyes on the KOOTN prize money and moving closer to a title shot. With his superior boxing and stellar management, it seems the new manager of Fuente would be hard pressed to bridge the gap in mere days.
Jamey Jasta v Franko Mia-What a contrast of characters! Jasta comes in with a bitter attitude for this fight. After losing his title shot in a fight where he was the clear favorite Jasta was pissed, and then he went on to fight the crafty veteran Mia to a draw, and now Jasta has flew into a murderous rage. He has already sent 4 sparring partners to the hospital, and camp mate Derek Vinyard has refused to train with Jasta. Mia, The Maniac, has arrived in Helsinki in great spirits. He knows he has nothing to lose in this fight, and feels he proved himself in the first fight. Mia claims all the pressure is on Jasta, and from the looks of it, he may be right. Look for Jasta to adjust his striking, and look to push Mia on the feet, but we all know Mia will be looking for the takedown, and is like a shark on the ground.
Asser Toropainen v David Enforcer-Asser has already begun to bristle at the chants of over-rated. The man who took St Petersburg by storm has been more of a cloud burst than a storm since joining Syn Euro. Asser looks to prove himself on the big stage in Helsinki. He will be looking for one of the submissions that made him so famous in Russia. Like Frank Mir, Asser’s subs are violent, and he doesn’t mind breaking bones to get wins. Enforcer on the other hand will look to stand and bang. David has made short work of 2 out of his first 3 Syn Euro opponents. He is looking to make it 3 of 4. With some of the best power in the division, and the temper of a cornered animal, Enforcer is as nasty as it gets in Syn Euro. This fight should be one to keep your eye on at all times. These two men come to finish fights.
Paden Taber v Qing Kong-This one is for the 155 lb championship of the world! These men come in with a combined 22 wins and one loss. Qing Kong has yet to taste defeat in the Tycoon world. He claims he will enter the Syn Euro VOF as the undefeated Syn Euro champion. Kong sites greatness in his family legacy, and believes he too is destined for greatness. Winning the Syn Euro belt will be the first step to his destined MMA immortality. When told of Kong’s claims, Taber exclaimed that Kong had spent too much time in the marijuana fields, and that he was going to send him back to said fields. Taber has no plans of rolling over and allowing Kong to take his title. Taber will fight to the final breath leaves his body. Unfortunately “The Mighty Kong” go to any lengths to strike it rich early in his Syn Euro career. Which man will leave the cage with the belt? FIND OUT ON CHRISTMAS EVE!
Ara Virta v Urpo Nyrkki-This fight will be for the 185lb title. Urpo arrives in Syn Euro after accomplishing everything that could be accomplished in the Helsinki’s B level org. Now he moves up to fight the best in the city! He walked straight into BankRupt’s office, after signing, and demanded a title shot with Virta. BankRupt granted his request. Urpo is one of the most experienced fighters to ever enter the Syn Euro octagon, and he hopes to use that experience to gain some gold. Urpo will be looking to KO Virta early, but he is prepared for a grind it out war as well. Virta on the other hand is no slouch either. He is possibly the most decorated fighter in Syn Euro history. He is a living legend in the org. and has already secured his spot in the VOF. As a matter of fact, he has only tasted defeat one time in his Syn Euro career, or he may still have been the 170 lb title holder as well. Expect a stand up war from these two warriors! The leather will be flying, and one man may be carried from the cage!
